When Darkness Whispers – a Paranormal Romantic Suspense Novel

When Darkness Whispers

Some memories are better left forgotten…

Haunted by an unclear past, biologically enhanced Marine,
Eva Montreaux, can’t be distracted from her mission. With American servicemen
being brutally murdered on the island of Okinawa, it’s more than priority. It’s
critical. But when her investigation brings her face to face with Marcos
Delacruz, it triggers memories. Ones she lost. Memories that somehow include
him.

Marcos Delacruz has tried to forget the woman who left him
with nothing but empty promises. Even now, three years later, Eva doesn’t seem
to express any guilt over breaking his heart. In truth, she seems to barely
recognize him. This deployment has been challenging enough with too many
restless spirits haunting the island. But when his own investigation forces him
to cross paths with her once more, Marcos discovers there may be a deeper
truth.

With the number of murders climbing rapidly and the rising
need to track the murderer across the tropical island, Eva struggles to reclaim
what she lost. But the island holds darker elements–a serial killer. One that
doesn’t appear to be human.

Thrust into a world she can’t escape, Eva must discover a
way to stop a murderer from destroying anyone else’s future, but how can she
succeed if she can’t even remember what role Marcos played in her past?

Excerpt

She froze momentarily. He addressed her by her first name.
Whatever their relationship was, it had been close enough for a first name
basis in the military.

“I have to go,” she said, rushing over as a cab pulled over.

“I thought we could get a drink.” His voice lowered an
octave, to a deep rich tone. “Talk about what happened.”

“Some other time.”

“You’re just going to leave?” His voice took on an icy
edge. He grabbed her wrist, and his guarded expression dropped. His eyes
darkened, flashing anger. “Without any explanation about what happened?”

She yanked her arm back. “Don’t touch me like that,
Marcos,” she warned. A flash of surprise hit as she heard herself call him by
his first name, which was quickly replaced by fury. Who the hell was he to grab
her that way?

Fire burned through her warning glare as she backed toward
the cab. Her fury was mirrored in his stance—he balled his hands into fists and
a vein throbbed in his neck. But he didn’t pursue her. She climbed in and heard
him swear in what sounded like Portuguese as she slammed the door. Her heart
raced from the unexpected interaction.

How
did I know his name? And what am I supposed to explain?

After telling the driver her destination, she took a deep
breath to relax her muscles. It was the first time the killer had struck since
she’d arrived in Okinawa over a week ago, and she had to stay sharp. Willing
the cab to go faster, she leaned forward to glance at the speedometer as her
leg began to twitch.

When she turned back, Marcos had disappeared.

Who the hell was he?

She’d been content to leave memories of Afghanistan
clouded, since wartime deployments were not the happiest of experiences.
Something jarred in her mind, unleashing flashes of what she’d lost—which included
him.
